    Coincidentally the woman in our polling station used to live two doors away from me and I was also in bed early last night :)

    Weather lovely here today, very warm and sunny.

    Have a fab weekend :)

    Afternoon Diary,

    Hope everyones enjoying their Saturday. Quite a spendy day today :cool:
    £35 on the kids new cubs and scouts uniform
    £10 in a card for DD's friend (DD made the card which saved us buying one!)
    £27 in Mr Al's - totally loving this place :D
    £36 in Mr A's - this was made up of bit we couldn't get in Mr Al's plus extra biscuits, crisps that were on offer that will keep us going a couple of weeks. Also about £5 worth of stuff (!!!!) for the privilege of DH and DD2 coming with me :mad:

    So over the past few days we have spent a fortune on food. The fridge, freezer and cupboards and bursting though and we should have a small it shop at Mr Al's next week.

    Cant wait for my new shopping budget to restart so that I can start my new plan. One big shop at Mr T's as I currently pay for delivery saver and then smaller weekly shops at the farmshop and Mr Al's.

    HI, the weather improved for a bit but back to rain again today :mad: having to use the TD as the washing is just getting out of control.

    SA, she was our next door but 2 neighbour too!! How bizarre!!

    Hope all ok x

    Forgot to say me and the kids did a comparison on the past 2 Mr Al's shops compared with our usual Mr T's. We've saved over £15 so far!! xx

    A new Lidl has just been built on my route home from work. I'm in there most days, I love it, can't believe how cheap it is :)

    Sounds about right HI!!! Poor DD with the miserable weather.

    SA, I haven't got into Lidl yet, we tried one in France and didn't really like it!! Give me about 5 years to get used to it and il be raving on about how good it is :rotfl:

    So I've been so naughty food wise tonight and told DH we need to stop this now as I'm a bridesmaid in 6 weeks and trying on my dress in 2 :eek:.
    Day started off well with country crisp strawberry cereal and a slice of wholemeal toast then 1/2 a pitta pizza DH made.
    Tea then was BBQ chicken chicken, hm oven chips and onion rings.
    Then.... wine, mini eggs, 8 pieces of galaxy and half a bag of balsamic crisps :eek:

    Tomorrow were having a roast with syrup sponge for pudding :o this is all DH's fault as I would not have bought this items should he not have been in Mr A's with me :rotfl:

    Back on it Monday!!! Might even frequent the gym tomorrow :rotfl: xx
